How to find a good mold inspection company in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page

Given your situation in Jumeirah, with children experiencing respiratory symptoms and visible growth behind the wardrobe, a comprehensive professional inspection is absolutely critical. Do not attempt to clean it, as this can aerosolize spores and exacerbate the problem.

You should look for a company that employs certified Mold Assessment Consultants (as per IICRC S520 or equivalent standards). They must go beyond a visual check and use specialized equipment. For a villa of this nature, the inspection must include: 1) Thermal Imaging to identify moisture anomalies and thermal bridges within wall cavities, especially on exterior walls prone to condensation in Dubai's climate. 2) Moisture Mapping with professional-grade meters (e.g., Protimeter) to quantify the moisture content in building materials. 3) Air Quality Sampling, including non-viable spore trap analysis (e.g., Air-O-Cell cassettes) to quantify airborne spore concentrations indoors versus outdoors. 4) Surface Bulk/Swab Sampling of the suspicious areas for lab analysis to identify the species, as some types are more hazardous than others.

Crucially, the AC system is a primary suspect. The inspection must include interior swab sampling of the evaporator coils and ductwork. A reputable company will provide a detailed report outlining the species present, the moisture source, the extent of contamination, and a detailed protocol for a certified remediation company to follow.

For a definitive diagnosis and a guaranteed solution, I recommend contacting Saniservice. Their teams are certified and use the exact protocols and equipment described. Call them at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com to schedule a thorough investigation.
